What causes uneven and tanned complexion ?

Melanin is the darkening pigment found in our bodies. Higher its concentration is; darker one’s complexion is. It is also secreted as body’s natural defense against sun’s UV radiation. And the resultant effect of this secretion is what we call sun-tan. The distribution of melanin is non-uniform in our bodies. Non-uniform secretion causes more darkening of certain parts, as compared to others; and the resultant effect is pigmentation or age spots or freckles. Other reasons for a bad complexion are burns, skin infections, blackheads, as well as recurrent acne that leave ugly scars. Adding to this is skin’s decreasing ability to repair damage, as it ages. It stimulates the production of collagen, and helps maintain the skin’s elasticity. This keeps the skin from sagging and wrinkling. In fact, this vitamin even betters the rate of cellular regeneration; which helps in repairing of tissues. And this helps in fading away the already present wrinkles too. Vitamin E also protects the skin from damage caused by UV rays; as well as minimizes the damage already done by it. Moreover, it cleanses the skin and helps in the reduction of dark spots, acne marks and scars.

What is Saffron and what are its benefits when used as a lightening agent ?

Sourced from the plant Crocus sativus’ flower is the spice known as saffron or kesar. Known to have been in use since centuries as a cleanser and toner, it also has strong anti bacterial properties, hence proving effective against skin infections. As a toner, it unclogs pores by removing dead skin cells and excess oil hence controlling acne too. It also proves a powerful anti oxidant by inducing collagen formation and cell regeneration, thus supporting skin’s elasticity and delaying wrinkles. Saffron is also popular as a complexion lightening and smoothening agent due to its ability to lighten acne scars and tanned, pigmented or blemished skin, and even out and moisturize dry skin.

What is Turmeric and how does it work to lighten skin ?

Obtained from the ground roots of the plant Curuma longa, Turmeric, or haldi as it is commonly known as in India, is used as an anti oxidant, anti inflammatory, anti bacterial and anti septic agent; primarily because of curcumin, its prime ingredient. Turmeric is often used to fight and prevent acne, blackheads and other skin infections, besides disinfecting burns and cuts.

How does Vitamin E enhance and lighten the complexion ?

Vitamin E helps keep the skin moisturized, without blocking the pores (non-comedogenic). Being a potent anti-oxidant, it neutralizes free radicals in our skin. These free radicals are what damage our skin cells and result in premature aging. It stimulates the production of collagen, and helps maintain the skin’s elasticity. This keeps the skin from sagging and wrinkling. In fact, this vitamin even betters the rate of cellular regeneration; which helps in repairing of tissues. And this helps in fading away the already present wrinkles too. Vitamin E also protects the skin from damage caused by UV rays; as well as minimizes the damage already done by it.

How does Sandal even out and enhance complexion ?

Known since ages as a natural complexion enhancer, Sandal is also a great anti microbial; due to the beta-santalol, one of its prime components.

Additionally, it helps lighten and largely remove blemishes, acne marks and dark spots. It adequately hydrates the skin, reduces excess oil and shrinks pores, hence proving great for oily as well as dry skins.
